Strange noises, fluid leaks, and shuddering gears. These are warning signs that something is wrong with your transmission. Sometimes, the problem simply relates to lack of maintenance. For instance, if your car has dirty transmission fluid, small pieces of metal and sludge can gum up the system causing minor gear slippage or shuttering. To avoid these problems, bring your vehicle in for regular preventative maintenance.

When Does Your Car Need Transmission Service?

Preventative maintenance is one of the easiest ways to combat future transmission repairs. Bring your car in for service so we can identify small issues before they cost you big money. Every car owner knows they need to schedule regular oil changes. However, a transmission flush is just as important.

In general, you should get your transmission fluid changed every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. Check your owner's manual for the exact recommendation. Naturally, tougher conditions require more rigorous maintenance. If you do a lot of towing, cold-weather driving, and high-speed driving, you need to check your transmission more often. Contact us for more information about our affordable transmission maintenance service.

Keep Your Car Running Smoothly for Many Miles

During a transmission flush, we remove all the old, dirty fluid from the system. Then, we “flush” the entire system with a cleaning solution to remove sludge and other debris. After that, we fill the transmission with clean fluid to effectively increase its lifespan and the performance of your car as well. We also replace the transmission filter and gaskets. In the end, a flush saves your transmission from future problems.

When Not to Do Transmission Fluid Changes

It is very important to remember that transmission fluid changes are preventative maintenance. If you drive an older car and you have never flushed the transmission before, we do not recommend this service. In fact, a flush it could cause more problems with the system. Instead, we recommend a complete and free transmission diagnostic before a flush in order to rule out any problems.
